I've got a grapefruit tree that's started to comeback quite well after having severe root rot, but the current root system looks a bit weak the plant is about 4-5ft high but the roots probably wouldn't fill a 6inch pot. Has anyone tried these fungus root improvers? Or has any other method they use to improve a root system in a pot? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have a big batch of mycorrhizae, which is fungus that forms a symbiotic relationship with the roots. It works better in ground though, not containers. There's a name brand called great white. |

I would use a larger pot with really excellent drainage / porosity. The more oxygen in the root-zone, the better the roots. The trade-off, of course, is that you'll need to water thoroughly and regularly. Josh |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (My Page) on Mon, Mar 3, 14 at 18:37
Yes, Josh brings up a great point...The more oxygen your roots get, they will thrive with time. Mike |
Thanks guys. It's in a really big pot for the amount of roots and the mix is a very rough one with shredded pine tree, peat, perlite and vermiculite. Top dressed with some fancy looking gravel. Maybe it's just a time thing. Here's a pic of it now. I've just put it outside to get some sun. |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (My Page) on Tue, Mar 4, 14 at 7:39
Hey, that looks very nice.. But the ingredients you expressed worry we so...It may be porous at the moment, but all the ingredients you mentioned except that of perlite are bound to decay, compact, and clog your air spore spaces that you need for good root healthy root function sooner than later.. I give it about 3 months or so, just in time to give you drainage issues in the fall to winter when it's too late to repot..I would consider another mix for the spring so you don't have to worry of such a thing come next fall. Have a wonderful day_-) MIke |

Thanks for the advice Mike I'll be sure to get it into something coarser as soon as weather permits. It's not quite as bad as it looks as the top few inches is a bit less mixed than the rest as I dumped that on top of some roots that we're showing. |
- Posted by greenman28 NorCal 7b/8a (My Page) on Tue, Mar 4, 14 at 11:10
Like Mike said, I would eliminate the vermiculite completely. Bark and perlite are great, as long as there's not too much peat. In the UK, superior drainage is going to be essential. Josh |

No u spelled Fushi Yugi its a good manga i liked it alot also ai yori aoshi is pritty good to.

No u spelled Fushi Yugi its a good manga i liked it alot also ai yori aoshi is pritty good to.
Both. Boys/girls... Okay- The boys, example, the anime Boys Be.. It's interesting and I like the story. The shojo,... umn... I think it's also okay. But sometimes, it's too much.
I like both but I don't like the Shojo I read to be too be too girly and I don't like the Shonen to be too full of action caouse I like a good story.
I like shonen because there is alot more to read. I miss the manga sand land that was a good series. Haruko No Go is pretty god And so is Bleach.
Shōnen because the other one does not have manga that i like.
I am more in favor of shounen, there are only a few good titles in shoujo that I'm fond of. Most in shoujo genre are predictable and follows the same storyline and plot while being starred by an annoying female lead.
Shonen or Shojo...*thinks*
WEll to be completely honest I am a big fan of both. I like Shonen for their great battles and adventure stories. and I like Shojo because they have a sweet innocent kind of feel to them. Some of my friends who thought that they where a shonen kind of person turned out to be a shojo. And I turned out to be in the middle. but to bring up a different side to this question, I think that most people like Shojo and dont even realize it. but anyway I g2g jet so ttyal.
I'm for shoujo. Lots of shounen today seem to only focus on the fanservice aspect and it's really getting annoying when I download an episode only to find that it's another Harem or some innocent guy bombarded with an army of large-boobed girls who give a panty shot almost on cue.
Shoujo tends to have deeper meanings in their stories and that's usually what I'm looking for when I read a manga or watch anime. Of course, shoujo anime don't catch on as quickly as shounen anime does. It takes longer to develop a good shoujo anime and I guess some people aren't up for the wait. There are the magical girl shows, but they don't make up the entirety of shoujo, which I think some people think Shoujo is all about.
A lot of shounen, adding to what totalchaosgirl1988 wrote, do have themes that make up shoujo, and a shounen piece usually tends to be more popular if it's able to execute well a mix of shoujo and shounen.

It's Not Everyone's IDEA: The Implications of Inaccessible Procedural Safeguards Documents
Presenter/Researcher: Megan Schneider Dinnesen, UC doctoral student.
Under federal law, parents of children with disabilities have the right to advocate for their child. But how well do they understand the law? And are they often signing their children's rights away when they sign on a dotted line? A review of research on the subject finds that often, these documents are dense, jargon-filled and inadequate in helping parents of children with disabilities properly make decisions about their education.
Dinnesen writes that although the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) has been in place for more than three decades, the mandates "remain largely unfunded and its promises inconsistently upheld. Congress opened the doors of public schools to children with disabilities, but they have repeatedly failed to ensure appropriate educational opportunities for these children." Dinnesen writes that if IDEA continues to place the responsibility for accountability, enforcement and advocacy on parents, then parents must be given the proper tools to understand their rights as well as the rights of their children.

Through her work with the UC Urban Center for Social Justice, Peace Education and Research (UCSJPER), Killham designed and tested the board game, "War Between Suburbs: How Do We Achieve Peace?"

We were given a choice of tables. One type was at the FAR back that looked like tables at a drive-in, the ones that would be back near the food service areas that you might sit in instead of eating in your car. The other choice is what we took. It's a "car" that faces forward, but between the front part and the back part (which are separated) there are two proper tables. We sat our party of 8 at the two tables; we were able to face each other and talk and enjoy our time together, and we were seated in a form of a car. If we wanted to eat there again, we would want THAT one again. I don't want to be squished in a row with hubby and son, or make a choice of who gets to sit alone, in the cars that MOST people talk about when they talk about Sci Fi. That was a seriously long-winded response to ONE part of your question, but I hope it helps in some way. FWIW, not *everyone* wants a window view at Sanaa. We've dined there twice and haven't put in any requests yet.

I was watching a You Tube video of T-Rex yesterday and thinking that it seemed so loud I might cancel the reservation. Right then my son walked in, watched the video with me and commented "Wow, that looks so cool. Can we go eat there." I think we will play the noise by ear when we walk in. If it seems really bad we might just order a appetizer then go to Wolfgang Pucks or Earl of Sandwich later on. I'm happy to give it a try for my son's sake. Thanks for the feedback about Sci-Fi and Sanaa. Those sci-fi tables sound great. I'll just be happy if we get a car (any car), but it's interesting to hear about the wide variety of seating in this restaurant. I'm going to cross my fingers that the night I eat at Sanaa there are a whole lot of others like you who don't mind if they're not at the window. Although going by what RustyScupper said, it sounds like people's preferences have no bearing on where they sit anyway. Shame really. |

We had a dinner ADR at San Angel last week. DD really wanted to sit near the water so I stopped by the podium earlier in the day and asked what was the best way to have a shot at that. The manager told me to get there 15 minutes before our reservation time and put the request in at the podium.
That's what we did and the CM at the podium said he needed to talk to his manager. We waited off to the side and noticed that the CM never talked to the manager and basically a minute later they called our name and seated us in the furthest row from the water. I mentioned to the seater that the podium CM was supposed to be checking about a waterside table (I could see that there were two available) so she brought us back up front. We waited for a bit more and the manager (different from the one I spoke to earlier) came over and was basically very, umm, abrupt with me. He said that everyone wants a water table and he really couldn't even give us any sort of timeframe when one would be available. He showed us on his tablet that the longest seated table was at just about an hour but added, "that really means nothing because sometimes people stay for 2 to 3 hours." We ended up opting leave. Not because the water table was a dealbreaker, but the way he spoke with us rubbed me the wrong way. I get it that it's just a request an all that, but there's a nice way of saying things.
Recent trips: BWI - 2014, BC/POR - 2013, GF - 2012, BWI - 2011, Poly - 2011, BWI - 2010, GF - 2010, Poly - 2009, Pop - 2008, BC - 2008 and many more!

The fact that you were seated at a table a long way from the water is consistent with RustyScuppers comment about the computer just picking where you sit. But it also sounds like there are a few CM's that are still trying to acknowledge requests. I've made my reservations as early as possible for Sanaa and San Angel as these are the two that are most important to me. I'm going to really cross my fingers for these two and then for all the others - just be grateful that I'm dining in Disney at all. There's so much planning that can be done when organising a trip to Disney, that I guess it's easy to get too focused on the smaller details. I need to remind myself more often that even if I get stuck in the worst table in the darkest corner, I will still be happy because I'm on a wonderful holiday |

- WKRN-TV Nashville: What is your reaction to the verdict?
What is your reaction to the verdict?(Type: link | Published: 2013-07-14T02:41:23+0000)
[gayle jones] - Nobody wins: a boy lost his life; and, a man has to live with that fact AND try to have normalcy for the rest of his life. There is no "win."
[alexa jones] - Score one for justice.
[jay huff] - Now George Zimmerman should ask for his weapon back and arm himself to the hilt over all the death threats, and he should file lawsuits against the D.O.J. and the media outlets over defamation of character, and I hope he makes millions selling his side of the story.
[lisa horner] - Disgust and disappointment in our justice system.
[jay huff] - Justice prevailed, and the Political and Media witch hunt got slapped back in the face.
[denise holt roddey] - The correct decision was made as per the evidence and testimony given by the various witnesses. Only those in the courtroom heard and saw everything, none of us did. 2 families have been destroyed. We need to hope both sides will now begin to heal and that there will be no riots sponsored by the DOJ and innocent people are hurt.
[pat e yarber] - God does answer prayers. The RIGHT VERDICT was made. He was NEVER guilty.
[jason franks] - There simply wasn't enough proof of murder. I think they got it right with what the prosecution presented.
[dana gonzales] - glad he got off! it was all about race and not what happened!
[taunya klepacki-griffith] - Martin would still be alive if GZ would have listened to police who repeatedly told him to back off and do not approach Martin. Wait for police. It was that simple. Stupid man trying to be Superman when it wasn't needed. Praying for the Martin family.
[cindy smith mosley] - The jury made their decision on what they heard. I watched alot of it but what I heard they made the right decision. Right or wrong it was made. Now it's time to pray for both families.
[doug raines] - Not everything is race, grow up people
[tracey pullum] - I wasnt there. The courts handled it. GZ will never have his life back either way. Nobody "wins".
[stephanie smith bain] - I am so glad an innocent man isn't going to prison. I agree with George . The only reason he was charged was because of politics.
[juli huffman watson] - Verdict is correct...dispatcher told Zimmerman to not follow him so he stopped and then he was attacked. It's tragic,but the Verdict was right.
[ryan taylor] - Only in America can a Hispanic guy kill a black guy and its the white mans fault!
[brian keith bell] - I just saw a comment that zimmerman better watch his back the rest of his life. Now thats why people use stereotypes and racially profile in the first place. Its bad someone lost their life. Seeking revenge and burning down neighborhoods and hating whitey is what keeps racism going. Wow
[frank baker] - @april quarles you are the racist, you ignorant woman.
[ashley taylor] - They didn't prove he had ill will! Even the police detective believes he was telling the truth!
[jamie bedel] - I think it's right.
[phil flip flipper carlin] - The TRUE JUDGE will pass sentence tho we were to blind to see.
[doug raines] - This shouldn't have been on TV this happens everywhere
[craig risner] - Why does it have to be about a BLACK kid n not just a kid! The problem with this country is everything has to be black or white!
[earline roy parmer] - I live close by and this was the greatest verdict that could have ever happened.
[shavonda jones] - As a mother of a teenager it hurts
[jennifer falkenbach hewson] - Oh, and it WAS ALL ABOUT RACE. I don't care who says it wasn't!!! But here's the funny part...why are they saying Black and white?? Zimmerman is Hispanic, NOT white!!
[missy rawson] - Justice was most definately served. Just because he was 17 didn't make him innocent. It's about time people did their civic duty based on the evidence instead of race.
[tammie victory] - It's HORRIBLE! But I'm not shocked. Add Zimmerman to the list. Casey Anthony for example.
[elaine bowman] - not surprised.. they let Casey Anthony get away with murder, what makes Zimmerman any different..
[lisa dotson] - If a man follows someone in his truck whom he deems suspicious, calls 911 and is instructed not to follow the person but continues to do so, then confronts that person and ends up shooting and killing that person, that is 2nd degree murder. He deliberately played rent a cop against a perceived threat. And the teen lost and so did justice!
[mike veto burls] - If he would have stopped following him this would not have happened period! Not a black and white thing a right and wrong thing!
[ellen woodard murphy] - No one will know what really happened.. Two families lives have been destroyed.. Let's not make this a race issue. Praying for both families..
[juanita moses-mcquay] - Disappointed! But I know that God will have the final say in this matter. Then justice will be served....I guess George was the only one who had a right to "Stand his Ground" Praying for the Martin family.
[chelsea raymer] - Justice prevailed.
[nathaniel m harrington] - Not guilty was there right answer
[brigham l anglea] - Congrats defense. You did your job. PROVED he wasn't guilty.
[brian keith bell] - Bad that a youngster git killed. Bad situation all the way around. Looked to be centered on race. I am not racist and I generally dont buy in to atereotypes. I have head that riots were being talked about if zimmerman was found not guilty. I hope that wasnt true and I hope it doesnt happen. That would only reinforce those stereotypes. Glad its over.
[joshua belvedere] - A complete failure of the American justice system.
[miriam bell] - It's obscene. Apparently it's now okay to shoot kids for simply walking while black.
[roxanne chilcote] - I agree with Gayle, nobody wins when someone dies. This man has to live with the fact that he killed a young man. Trayvon's family has to live without their son. Who won?
[lydia spillers fowler] - Another murderer free to roam the streets of FL again...
[mike kuzawinski] - I believe the verdict is correct. The prosecution tried to paint it as a racial slaying of a child which it was not. It was 2 grown men in a scuffle which ended I in self defense
[raymond manning] - There had been NUMEROUS break-ins recently and EVERYONE was on high alert at the time! Needless to say the people in the neighborhood are behind GZ!! This was more than a 'kid' carrying a bag of skittles! He had a past of fighting and recently beat up his bus driver! He was also suspended from school for several reasons. His mother could not handle him so she sent him to live with his dad who evidently didn't keep him under his watch! He was not the innocent 'child' the media wanted you to think... and the pictures they chose to show of him prove that! why didnt they show the vulgar ones from his facebook page?? Now if you listened to the 911 tapes or watched the trial at all you know that TM was much larger than GZ and you also know that GZ was attacked from behind. He was in the process of walking back to his truck because he lost sight of TM. He was not the aggressor. He was legally carrying a gun and he legally defended himself when he was getting the crap beat out of him and getting his head bashed in to the sidewalk. The prosecution knew this and that's why they wanted the sentence lowered to manslaughter because they knew they didn't have a leg to stand on. What happened is a terrible tragedy for both families. I cant imagine losing a child
[abenezer hismercy abraham] - I don't care what the verdict says. If I'm walking home minding my own business and you come following me in your car and then on foot and you have a gun. I will use all my strength to beat you and kill you with my bear hands. That's called SELF-DEFENSE!!!
[shorri racquel] - @Amber Hall he was 17 and yes he was s kid with a college scholarship and a 3.4 GPA, not a thug!
[myra stewart] - Not surprised. Guilt must be proven beyond a shadow of doubt. If there is any doubt, jurors have no choice. This is a tragedy all around. A young man lost his life and the verdict won't bring him back. I can think of several cases where proof was not presented and the verdict was not what was expected.
[beth patterson] - I'm from Springfield, born and raised, I know nothing about the case other than people on both sides are either pleased or displeased. How can people be concerned about a teenager being killed when in my own city more black people own guns than the police. There are still unsolved murders and will be. People should be ashamed trying to say its the white peoples fault. Racism and ignorance are more than what a color shows. I am ashamed of the human race though.
[randall wilson] - I'm sorry for Trayvon - the system let him down again!
[kristyandgary pacetti] - I am happy to see a man found not guilty after protecting his own life! People want to make it a race thing???? Really? That card is played out! The true victim really is the Martin boy...he was raised to have no respect or values. He knew thay Zimmerman was part of neighborhood watch and it all could have been avoided if he would have not had thought it was okay to do bodily harm to another ...seems like if there was a case of racism here.....it was Martin who was racial ....but he was a victim of poor upbringing and nothing more. There is far too many young people with this same disregard for their elders and authority. Sadly it got him killed ...but ANYONE who says in Zimmerman's shoes that night...they would not have been fearful of their life...given the events that took place....THEY ARE A LIAR!
[jason d. jenkins] - Maybe Zimmerman should have just lied still and let. Martin beat him to death. Maybe all of these people trying to make it about race would be happy then. I don't care what race you are every one has a right to defend themselves. Period.WKRN-TV Nashville: What is your reaction to the verdict? - 50th Comments
[doug raines] - And we all know OJ did it
[craig risner] - I believe the jury made the right decision based on the case the state made!
[alan barnett] - What should we learn from this case? If you suspect suspicious activity notify the police and LEAVE!
[vicky ruff batcher] - Not going to lie and say I'm not happy about the verdict. You never hear about much about a black man shooting another black man or the black man that shot the white man. But a white man shooting a black man has this country in an up roar. I say it scored one for self defense. The level of fear one feels whether they are armed or not you can't judge. If your in fear you are in fear whether a weapon is there or not. Amen for Self Defense
[faye dukes] - I feel bad for this guy, he is free to go but he would have probably been safer in jail. People in public are going to believe what they want and hold hate in their hearts and he will probably be attacked. It's a sad world we live in. I don't know whether this guy deserves to be free or not, but his return home will not be without much anxiety.
[lashandra white] - How many people on here calling Trayvon a thug actually met him? How many in this discussion are innocent if making racist remarks, jokes, and comments ? NONE. HE should have gotten Manslaughter. He followed that young man after being instructed not to and then drew his gun and shot him. Yes black on black crime happens and those guilty are arrested and serve time. Did he not commit a crime?
[kevin comer] - Where is the outrage of black on black or white on white killings? Don't hear about that. When two different races are involved its automatically racism. That's total crap. Any death brought on by violence is the real issue here. Lets see the media sensationalise that story. Probably won't happen. No ratings in trying to fix the real problem!
[doug raines] - Terrance he wasn't white
[scott adkins] - The justice system worked!!!!
[jennifer falkenbach hewson] - Just glad it's over!! SO SICK of hearing Zimmerman this Trayvon that!! Dang!!
[jennifer anderson ryan] - I wish you guys would just drop this I have never seen such horrible language on this case Media go away!!!
[pam smith webb] - Sick a young man has lost his life.what makes it worse is that smug look on his face.
[erika thompson odell] - Zimmerman should have been found guilty of something, even manslaughter, although a lesser charge, to prevent him from EVER legally having a gun again!!!
[shorri racquel] - He murdered an unarmed kid...that is NOT justice!!!! He may be free but he will forever be looking over his shoulders...
[mark hopkins] - Justice was served.
[ruth morgan] - Where was the news on the million dollar settlement the parents got from the HOA?
[john griffith] - JUSTICE WAS PASSED BY SIX SWORN INDIVIDUALS ACCORDING TO THE LAWS OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY SO GET OVER IT AND LIVE WITH IT.
[jason conner] - The correct verdict was reached and must be respected by all
[jason cobb] - There is no such thing as African Americans, if so I am a European American! That makes me special too! WE are all Americans, so stop crying bc you did not get your way!
The justice system spent a ton of money on this case, the system works, decisions were made! He is not guilty, bottom line drive on!
[justin morrow] - The verdict was 100% correct.
[kaninchen schwartzepfote] - Zimmerman will now have to live his life constantly looking over his shoulder...he will not be safe ANYWHERE...
[bob durocher] - We don't KNOW what happened to lead to the confrontation. We can only guess. But in a court of law guesses don't count and the prosecution did not prove their case. No winners here, only losers.
[doug raines] - If your saying anything about "white" then you my friend are the definition of a RACIST
[mike veto burls] - True words Doug I pray for both souls and the families because a lot of lives are forever changed
[doug raines] - Mike I agree, but there's no need in a racial outbreak.... We are all children of God
[doug raines] - Ryan Taylor your right on it!
[mike veto burls] - Doug he would not have to defend his self against anyone if he would have stayed in the car like he was told. And everyone would have went home.. He was a crime watch that means watch and call the police
[doug raines] - pray for both families, I guess you haven't realized Zimmerman is gonna have to live with this because he defended hisself
[doug raines] - He was no kid , if he had killed Zimmerman he would've been tried as an adult
[linda cobb vickers] - "We was mistreated" 200 years ago????? I don't think "we" we're around then!!!!
[doug raines] - My step dads brother was murdered by 3 black men they cut his throat under arm pits and knee caps, no justice was ever served nor was it on TV
[tracey grindle] - Sure hope riots dont break out like rodney king again. Im not racist, i do feel it was self defense and i do get tired of hearing a out racism. I never owned slaves nor did my family. I dont believe in it or the kkk and i get acused sumply for being white. Racism exists in all cultures. We are all immigrants. We all bleed res but right is right and we have a right to defend ourselves. Love your neighbors even if u disagree. Rioting will only breed hate.
[janina mari' allen] - Disappointed in our justice system. People can walk away from killing a child. Mothers can kill their children and walk away. What is this world coming to?
[carolyn leake] - Zimmerman innocent, Casey Anthony innocent, OJ Simpson innocent. White man, white woman, black man. 3 types of people. I just feel sorry for Trayvons parents, Little Cayley OJs children. But what do i know? I dont, i just listen.
[trejean watkins] - First of all I feel sad for trayvon martins family secondly I'm just disappointed in this verdict. This shows that racism has not died and is till alive and well
[shorri racquel] - Some of you all are pitiful! Until the tragedy hits your house...I will leave it at that...smh
[dianna werme] - How is this right when he shot an unarmed kid?!
[mary jones devault] - Apparently some people think it's ok to beat a persons head in the ground and punch them in the face. It wasn't a matter of " shooting a kid for walking while black." Maybe he shouldn't have been following the kid at all, idk I wasn't there. Following someone doesn't give a person the right to beat another person. If the jury got it wrong based on evidence presented, God will see that justice is done in the end. Just glad I didn't have to make this decision.
[ted holiday] - The Jury has SPOKEN! Now watch the media not let it die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[amber hall] - Black men kill black men daily but let a HISPANIC man kill a black man and it's the end of the world. Black on black crime is an epidemic yet they focus on this?? Travon was not a "child". He was a racist thug although he did not deserve to die. Zimmerman did not deserve a murder charge and a jury of his peers agreed. For those of you making race an issue....look in the mirror.
[michele rene] - he should have been found guilty of first-degree murder. He was instructed NOT to confront that kid, but he did it anyway because he WANTED a confrontation. He killed a KID and he should have fried for it!
[linda coffey gates] - Justice is served!
[janiece daland hamblen] - Truth won out! Did not think that they would listen to the evidence of how he was brutally bashed in the head.
[deborah robinson barber] - Happy he was found Not Guilty. Now if he had been punished and had made to stay home he would be alive. If my teen had been expelled from school she wouldnt have see the light of day for months and she certainly wouldnt have a cell phone.
[randy harmon] - WHOO-HOO !!
Score One for The Good Guys ! !!
[tim walpole] - I believe its the right call,,
[georgette sorini] - he should have gone to prison. an eye for an eye!
[bonnie maynes] - There is no justice in Sanford Florida. The man was clearly guilty.
[arvy smith prentice] - here we go again blaming all white people on a case that has nothing to do with eveybody else but the two involved
[john griffith] - MISS MARIA. IT DOESN'T APPEAR AS IF YOU HAVE MISSED TOO MANY MEALS YOURSELF.WKRN-TV Nashville: What is your reaction to the verdict? - 100th Comments
[maria canaday] - No one wins, not guilty does not mean he did not kill the young man, he may have got off, but it's between him and God now.... Karma sucks
[greg bailey] - If Zimmerman had" resect " the law he would have let the LAW handle things that night
[john smith] - You really can get away with murder in this country. All you have to say is he looked suspicious to me.
[greg bailey] - He's not innocent .
[nancy howell] - displeased, but not surprised
[shane bloeser] - Like to see our moron President cry now.
[doug raines] - And Phaedra that's why Zimmerman was Latino
[julie hart ward thaxton] - There was no winner here. But there definitely was a loser.
[tami worley holloman] - I didn't hear all the facts presented, so can't comment on whether I think he was guilty or innocent, but the prosecution's job was to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. They couldn't do it.
[doug raines] - God bless u Mike
[jamie mueller] - @Ryan Taylor # you nailed it plain and simple!!!
[william bennett] - Just as I thought. INNOCENT by a landslide.
[sheila salewsky] - Guilty or not it is a sad situation. A man shot a young man. He was arrested, he plead self defense. A jury of his peers found him not guilty. Many lives have been changed forever. A mother and father have lost a son, a mans life has been forever changed. Guilty or not he has to live with the fact that he took a life. Guilty or not the young mans parents will forever mourn the loss of their son. Again it is a sad situation.
[margaret jacobsen] - miscarrage of justice,,that man was as guilty as hell!
[meghan strode] - Please April backs were selling blacks way before white people got in on the trade! But hey did ya know white people were also sold and made slaves as well?!??
[rebecca massie hubble] - I respect the jury. We were not there and have not walked in their shoes. With that being said, my heart breaks for the loss of a child and I am sure Mr. Zimmerman's life is forever changed.
[coy brown] - Justice has been served.
[linda cobb vickers] - "We" been free for almost 200 years!!! Drop it!!!
[paula renee' harvey] - Amen the justice system finally for one right
[meghan strode] - He was not a child!!!! If he committed a crime he would of been trailed as an adult!! But since he was the victim of self defense he is automatically a child?!?
[nan sandlin] - Jury did their civic duty base on facts....evidence presented to them.. whether we agree or not.
[sherry nichols] - I am fine with it what I new
[doug raines] - If it was my brother it wouldn't be on TV
[michelle thomas] - WOWW A POT SMOKING RACIST THUG?? WTF IS WRONG WITH PPL??17YRS OLD ISN'T STILL A CHILD? I PRETTY SURE IF UT WAS UR 17YR OLD CHILD OR BROTHER OR SISTER U WOULD FEEL DIFFERENT , ppl r so blind !!
[frank baker] - @shorri racquel he was a thug who was in his 3 rd school due to his behavior. He was caught at school with stolen property but wasn't charged with a crime. He attacked a man because he was being watched. Crazy
[craig chapman] - I'll follow you all day long. But if you confront me, sucker punch me, then get on top of me and beat me and say your gonna kill me, your screwed.
[julia sanders] - I think the jury got it right this is a case that never should have gone to trail. The state didn't prove the case and they over charged if they had of gone with manslaughter all alone the verdict might have been different.
[ben lawson] - Blame the prosecution .... they got owned in this case. Dont blame the media, what do you expect the media to do anyway. Its called ratings...
[sam anita spahr] - Unbelievable, praying for the Martins.
[jake poole] - Glad I'm (hopefully) done hearing about it.
[melva hancock wessner] - they ruled as they should have
[jeremy sigler] - When is the system ever effective ? Everyone has their own judgement day .. And money or your race won't sway The Lord just what's right .
[michael d. coleman] - @chelsea Raymer. Your stupid as hell.
[amy ashbury fadler] - Sometimes I believe people only base their decisions on who is right and wrong by simply the color of their skin. How about looking at the facts instead?
[ashley taylor] - LOL Brian... Funny
[donna martineau loring] - Correct decision.
[jerry gowen] - I did not hear the testimony so I have no understanding from an evidence standpoint who is guilty and who is not. Simple as that. I do believe in our way of life. Even with its flaws, I believe it is the way we make decisions of these types of conflicts and will not second guess those jurors who had the responsibility to render the verdict. I have set on a murder trial jury before and it is a daunting responsibility. God bless the USA…and our way of life. I will not undermine by making statements about what I do not know the facts.
[matt nelson] - I'm contemplating leaving America, because the system is broken.
[michael d. coleman] - @stephanie Smith bain. Ur stupid as hell. Well see how long he lives.
[thomas clarkkent taylor] - if he wasnt guilty then who was
[brigham l anglea] - I think it's so funny people call him a BOY or KID. a BOY or KID doesn't drive a car. Or walk home alone. But hey ! LET THE RIOTS BEGIN ! Sad but true
[sharlene smith] - So if he is innocent, then who pulled the trigger?
[rick chimber] - No one will ever no the truth of what really happened, but what I find ironic is half of the states witnesses seemed to help the defense more than the state
[paul pecori jr] - So true Jason...
[patty olsen jones] - It was a no win.. I am glad regarding the results and considering the facts. I did not expect it as the bias media, public figures, politicians and even this president used their voice to escalate the hatred & conviction and had absolutely NO right to make a confirmed judgement before the facts. However... for once the media & its manipulation and the Presidents 2 cents did not over ride the facts and the law. We have had numerous murders involving children.. black on white (or hispanic) & vice versa etc. However this one was chosen to escalate & attempt to divide the people once again. We need to stand as people and what is right.. not by race. Bless all those that have been impacted and give them peace.
[jackie james matthews] - Its a sin and a shame that your can kill an animal and do years of jail time but you can kill a black kid and just walk away - NOT GUILTY are you serious. My heart aches for the Martin family as the mother of a son I can feel/understand and share her pain- God be with us!!
[jennifer rye] - April Q----you dear need to learn how to spell!
[chuck traylor] - I feel a little more less safe in this world but that was even before the verdict.
[ryan taylor] - Is is guilty of getting out of his car, but that's not a crime
[barry whitehead] - Whether you like the outcome or not justice was served.WKRN-TV Nashville: What is your reaction to the verdict? - 150th Comments
[brian krost] - everyone so butthurt lol
[don goodman] - The death threats will be coming from stupid people. Zimmerman will have to move and change his name which is unfortunate that people just won't let justice be.
[diane zorza] - What a dirty rotten shame! Florida's judicial system is terrible, corrupted cops and right now, is a State that frees murderers!
[jennifer rye] - OJ got away with it, but he's too cocky & ended up in jail in the end!
[anna collier] - What ever happen to Thou Shll Not Kill ?
[anna collier] - Only in America, It's so sad.
[ryan taylor] - Watching al sharpton sit next to white lady's on msnbc saying "they won a battle, but we'll win the war!" Seems legit..LOL
[don goodman] - I hear Obama is looking into federal charges which would be stupid. The Justice system worked even with race involved
[jo ellen long-rice] - Good for Zimmerman! 6 mothers on jury felt he was not guilty. Should tell you something.
[greg bailey] - How would you feel. ?
[greg bailey] - Donna there would be justice. How would feel
[donna senior] - Wow! how would some of you feel if this was your son?
[greg bailey] - Carl describe the word thug in trayvons case.
[greg bailey] - ERIC I AGREE WITH YOU IF TRAYVON TURNS AND RUN TOWARD ZIMMERMAN BUT IF HIS INSTUCTION FROM THD POLICE SAYS WE"LL HANDLE AND YOU ARE TO WATCH THE SUSPECT ONLY THEN THERE IS NO SELF DRFENCE NEEDED. .
[eric arnold] - that had no rock solid proof of anything and its a good possiility it was self defense
[cynthia diane brown] - We are in a country with a legal system that isn't perfect but its ours. There are many worse. I don't know all of the facts so I leave the verdict to the jury.
[greg bailey] - QUESTION KAREN. DID HE ZIMMERMAN INSTIGATE THE SITUATION? SHOLD HE HAVE WAITED FOR THE POLICE ? Nobody's life was in dznger at the time he called 911
[greg bailey] - OMG!!! MARIA. WHAT DOES THATHAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING???
[greg bailey] - THE POLICE TOLD ZIMMERMAN NOT TO DO ANYTHING THAT THEY WOULD HANDLE. IF ZIMMERMAN HAD "OBEYED" THE LAW MARTAIN MIGHT STILL BE ALIVE AND ZIMMERMAN WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN HIS BRAINS BEAT OUT.
[pamela parker] - Amen @Ryan Taylor
[randy jones] - His death could have been prevented. It will probably change the neighborhood watch programs, in which it apparently is not effective in stopping crime.
[maria canaday] - Poor George sure has not missed a meal during all of this looks like he's justs stuffed himself with food....
[pamela parker] - Very well said @Julia Sanders.
[greg bailey] - HE WAS TOLD TO LET THE POLICE HANDLE. BOTTOM LINE HE TOOK THE LAW IN HIS OWN HANDS. IF HE HAD OBEYED THE LAW JE WOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN HIS BRAINS BEAT OUT.
[aroet daniela avitia] - That's the reason this country disgusts me because instead of your replies to my comment being "we should make it safer and better" or trying to fix it, it was leave and bye. People like you make this country disgusting.
[christine anderson horn] - Not surprised. Killers walk free every day.
[greg bailey] - Who sees a Zimmerman book deal in the future?
[jason-angie williams] - Wow who would have guessed a news channel would love to know the reactions to such a highly publicized murder trial... It never stops... My reaction to the post is don't fall victim to the media... I didn't know anyone in this trial personally but only what you (the media) told me or showed me. So I refuse to fall victim to media and realize there is no way to know which side I am for. I am with the previous post and no one is a winner. A life is lost and a man has to live with it for the rest of his days weather guilty or innocent. And to sum it up what is the purpose of this post? What is your reaction? To me it is merely another chance to keep the races divided by letting everyone read posts that have so many personal opinions and room for sparking emotions.
[chevelle virgo] - Well so what his azz wasnt arrested for a whole 45 days after the crime them when he comes to court he as big as double wide hell he will get bigger and no one will know his big azz but buger king or mdcs he will be safe
[kathryn ann peck slayman] - Justice prevails!!!!
[felisha 'fe' bryant] - What is REALLY going on in Florida? First Casey Anthony and now this. I have a few questions.
[terrence hillson] - Justice. LOL. This country has been screwing blacks for years and of course it continues. Instead of rioting which will go no where blacks should stop giving their pledge of allegiance to a land that does not respect them and treats them like 2nd class citizens while practicing programs designed to hold them back. The few that do "beat" the system are lucky, but they still will always hold the stigma of being black in this country and its thru no fault of their own. This whole case was a set-up to smack black people down and make whites feel like they won one why they celebrate a black child has died. And they call it justice....and they will smile about it because the most have no sense of righteousness. So celebrate white america as your country is slowly being torn apart from the inside out and when its too late you will find out what your focus really should have been on......
[sherry june best] - g.z. should have stayed in the car, and t.m. should have kept walking to his house. no confrontatiin equals no story. tough one to call but prosecution did not come thru
[wanda pillen] - He should of had jail time. He was told not to bother the kid and he wanted to Barney badass and he killed that kid ,he killed that kid after they told him to leave him alone and he could not follow directions and there is a kid dead and a mother without her child
[anita massengale sanders] - Gayle Jones, you said it all...
[shorri racquel] - @Megan henley..trashy is the evil fool who killed a 17 yr old!!! With your uneducated response...makes you a trashy!!! I am done.
[robert kirchner] - I think this guy will always be living in fear..
[courtney talley] - There was no justice for him but it shows how cruel the world can be
[jr robles] - Clearly, it's measured, rational, and not influenced at all by sensationalist media vultures. Obvs.
[shorri racquel] - Wth@meghan strode..no comment.may God blesd u sweetie cause you need it.
[doug raines] - Mike he was Hispanic
[tracy janssen law] - Too much reasonable doubt for guilty verdict
[bill leclair] - Happy Happy Happy, high five to George and the Justice System. Shame on the State Attorney and the county prosecutor for hiding evidence, and underhanded dealings, they need to be censored and disbarred for this behavior.
[adam john boyd] - I'm stunned that he got off that easy. I would settle on the score for insanity plea.
[craig chapman] - The prosecution had no case! It was obvious self defense to begin with. That's why the police chief was forced out. Because he wasn't going to press charges to begin with.
[barbara kent goodman] - It has been proven time and time again that you can protect yourself and property, even if that means by deadly force. Do I agree with the verdict, yes and no. I don't believe he was guilty of murder but a lesser charge, yes. Either way, his life is shot to hell. He'll never have a normal life.
[alan barnett] - This is obviously the right decision. Zimmerman made mistakes by stalking and profiling but he did not murder that boy.
[sarah alvarado] - Omg, thank you at least some people with common sense
[sabrina gironda] - First off racistism should not to pointed at white people because Zimmerman is not white, second off if there first witness wasn't such a b**** and people would have listened! Evidence showed he was guilty.
[jeffrey moritz jr] - This made the Devil giggle.WKRN-TV Nashville: What is your reaction to the verdict? - 200th Comments
[aroet daniela avitia] - This country is disgusting.
[shannon d akins] - These news stations are like springer you never report real news then when there is something...volatile y'all want to be all up in it ... That's right every body have an opinion to insight problems! Racism Sucks in all forms for all people let's talk about wars!! Lol
[timothy lusk] - Kid got what he deserved
[marjorie jones bass] - Justice even with all things done to keep justice from being done.
[kimberly auston davidson] - Just because he was found not guilty doesn't mean he's not. Im so not surprised at the verdict. This is typical of our justice system
[lisa michelle] - justice was not served!!!!!
[roger benderman] - Well its Florida law but no charges??? That's not right
[sheila totten] - Zimmerman should have been found guilty but what can we expect from the state of the "hanging chads"
[jennifer rye] - End the end, it all comes down to Karma. What comes around goes around.
[shorri racquel] - The system does not work!!!! It's not about getting "our" way. An unarmed kid was killed for no real reason.
[audrey robles] - No one is a winner here. A family is still grieving for their son who is dead. Another family is going to suffer the consequence of an innocent verdict and this man's life is up in the air.
[cathy michelle bell-snell] - It was the wrong verdict. George Zimmerman went against what the officers told him not to do. Approached a stranger with his gun. Trevon tries to defend himself and Zimmerman kills him. Zimmerman beoughtnthis all on himself. He is guilty. If he had listened to the officers and quit following him and stayed in his car, Trevon Martin would still be alive.
[april quarles] - Ok the only ppl who are saying justice was served is White no need to sugar coat nothin! Ur not black so u dnt knw wat its like!! History just keeps repeating itself! Yall,are sad group of ppl this goes bak to slavery!! We had been mistreated for over 200yrs in this country n we are the only group of ppl who didnt ask to be here!!! Now spend a day in my shoes!
[bob johnson] - Wonderful news. NOT GUILTY. The news media playes this one up and lost. The thug was not 12. He was a 17 year old punk and a known dealer. Even though the defense could not bring this up, the correct verdict was handed down. People have the right to defend themselves. If I see something thqt does not look right in my neighborhood I check it out. I protect my family and house. Plus I look out for my neighbors.
[randall dorris davis] - Thank God justice was served. Evidence not emotions.
[andrew putman] - Disbelief....a real tragedy all the way around
[ryan taylor] - 911 dispatch has no authority to tell anyone to stay in a car or do anything else, of that is your only reason for a guilty verdict then you can stop now
[telese davidson] - I feel the jury made the correct decision, but it is sad and tragic for both families either way
[shorri racquel] - @pam wearing a hoodie don't make u a thug. Yes there are plenty of educated people who are in prison, but wrong is wrong. Killing an unarmed 17 yr old KID is not justice!!
[shorri racquel] - @mark I did not suggest anything!!!! Get it right, I said he will be looking over his shoulder!
[kelly j martinez] - He got away with murder plain and simple!
[whitney brianna songz] - Trayvon Martin was a innocent 17 year old boy killed in cold blood not guilty was not the right verdict. Rest in Peace Trayvon
[michelle thomas] - PROOF OUR CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM IS THAT BULLSH*T!!! SMDH FLORIDA ,,ONLY STATE U CAN KILL CHILDREN & GET AWAY WITH IT!! ASK URSELF IF THAT WAS UR 17YR CHILD WALKING HOME FROM STORE & GOT SHOT,,, WOULD U STILL THINK THAT GEORGE ZEMMERMAN'S NOT GUILTY?? What is wrong with ppl?? WE HAVE NO JUSTICE SYSTEM!!!

Hi, this is Jennings Brown with Popular Mechanics. A few months ago, we started noticing a lot of really tough coolers on the market. Now these are coolers that make claims like, certified bear proof virtually indestructible and the toughest cases on earth. Well when we read claims like that, we figure they're begging to be tested. And here at popular mechanics we go all out. So, how else do you test a, bear proof cooler. Well, you find a bear. So we found a grizzly bear in, Virginia named Ondar and we had him, take these coolers for a spin. So here's a little preview of how that went down. First you gotta sweeten up the coolers cuz bears do love their sweets. [BLANK_AUDIO] And here's Ondar, the grizzly bear approaching his first victim, the Yetty Tundra 35. [BLANK_AUDIO] [SOUND] Then he went for the, Pelican Progear Elite. Now, the Progear has these push/pull latches that Ondar found surprisingly difficult to manage. [BLANK_AUDIO] And then we gave Ondar a a UConn 50. [BLANK_AUDIO] He was able to employ the same method he used on the, on the Yeti, which was pulling on the, the rubber latches. [BLANK_AUDIO] So which cooler survived? You'll just have to hit out our June issue to find out.

I should have asked to see the plant. Thanks for setting me straight on this. She said all the leaves were growing low to the ground so I had no clue it was a tree. Maybe they mowed over it. |
I think it's a young Burdock leaf. |
Yeah, looks like burdock, Arctium sp., to me. Young stems are edible but you have to peel them and cook them, a lot of work. |
- Posted by fig_insanity 7a, East TN (My Page) on Thu, May 15, 14 at 19:18
Burdock, definitely. Not what I'd call "edible" but supposedly has medicinal uses. |

Management of Heart Failure
Chest Roentgenogram.
Cardiomegaly, cardiothoracic ratio IMAGE 0.5 on an anteroposterior chest radiograph is common finding in HF patients. Pulmonary edema is marked by equalization of the caliber of blood vessels in the apex and the lung bases (cephalization of blood flow), interstitial edema (development of Kerleys B lines, sharp linear densities of interlobular interstitial edema), and alveolar edema (central butterfly or cloudlike appearance of fluid around the hili).
Laboratory Tests.
Laboratory testing in a patient with a new HF diagnosis should include an electrocardiogram, complete blood count, urinalysis, serum creatinine, potassium, and albumin levels, and thyroid studies (T4, TSH). Screening evaluation for arrhythmias using Holter monitoring is not routinely warranted.
Echocardiography has become an established diagnostic test for defining the cause and severity of HF, but it remains an underutilized procedure in the primary care setting. Echocardiography should be performed on all patients suspected of having HF. This is true even in apparently well-compensated elderly patients as clinical symptoms and signs correlate poorly with cardiac function and a diagnosis of HF is less certain. A two-dimensional echocardiogram coupled with Doppler flow studies allows the physician to determine chamber dimensions, geometry, and thickness, regional wall motion abnormalities, and qualitative information about the cardiac valves. Essential for HF management, the echocardiogram also provides measurement of the LVEF.

Track Your Job Search
Do you ever feel confused or lost in your job search?
Documenting your search can help you stay organized and informed. You will probably send many Resumes during your search. By keeping notes on each opportunity, you can sound knowledgeable in case you are unexpectedly contacted by one of those employers you reached out to.
Your notes can be in any format - - in a notebook, planner, or on your computer. Just pick a process that works best for you and stick to it. Regardless of the format, we suggest you always track these pieces of information:
Company Name
Recruiter's Name
Phone/Fax Numbers
Email Address
Also, keep notes on conversations you've had with Recruiters and, if available, attach a copy of the actual Job Ad to your notes. This will serve as a quick reference guide for future conversations.

I think the design is nice. I wouldn't use the term "elegant", but it is pretty. I just think there could be a nice skirt attached.

Nicely done!!!
OMG, its not like she is wearing this on the streets...come on guys! IT IS A PERFORMANCE!!!!
i think she looks beautiful in any thing she wears. it's her style choice, and it makes me angry that she gets called a slut, but if selena wore this (which she has worn clothes like this, even without the tights), people would call her cute, not a slut. just because miley actually has curves to show off doesn't make her a slut.
Fighting online is like the special olympics. Even if you win, YOURE STILL A RETARD.
I think she is beautiful in her own way. Everyone has there opinions and everyone has different ways of expressing there selfs. Just because she is "expressing herself" doesn't mean she wants everyone to talk trash about her. Not that it even matters to her if people do, it's just that why waste your time if there isn't a reason to?
Must I remind people that she doesn't pick her own outfits. I don't like them and I'm not a big fan of her but I don't think judging her is right. She doesn't choose that. I mean if it were you what would you do for money ? You're famous and wanna keep that fame, what would you wear ? I'm not the kind of person to sit here and tell someone what's right or wrong and say if she is right or wrong. I'm not gunna blame anyone for what she does. She is a teenager, whether it's what she wears to make money in concert or drugs . That's her choice and who are we to just judge. Everyone in this conversation is gunna make mistakes. Sorry if you disagree. My opinion.
who told her that body suits were everyday wear? I can't decide if she wants to be a pole dancer, a stripper, or a gymnast/figure skater. Her outfits have me confused as to what job it is she thinks she has because as far as I know only gymnasts or figure skaters wear body suits and the whole see through gown and dancing on a pole sounds a lot more like a stripper or pole dancer then a singer to me. I used to really like Miley and respected her for her commitment to her fans and family. Now I just feel sorry for her.
look at those gorgeous legs
I think it's great that everyone is bashing her outfit when there are worse things - people YOUNGER than Miley's EIGHTEEN years that are wearing less clothes than she is in half of these photos - on the the streets in or non-celebrity lives evverywhere
LOL. you're all fucking retarded. Why are we so against someone elses' opinions that we have to be a complete bitch to each other? I remember those days when I was 7 years old.
Are people really trying to suggest that Miley isn't repulsive? It kills me that if her dad weren't rich, she'd just be some busted up trailer trash shopping at walmart. I mean, sure, her body's fine - I mean, I guess you could cover her face with a pillow, right? Yuck!
Uh, she isn't pretty either.
she looks great. some of these outfits may be hoe-ish if you wore them to a club or on campus sure, but she's a famous singer performing on stage. not only that, but partly known for her looks/body. get over yourselves and start enjoying life.
So? She has her legs out. It's a high neck and long sleeves. It balance's it out. Sure, you wouldn't wear this on the street but it's a stage outfit! She's a performer. Chill,guys (: x
haha you guys all needa go and listen to your taylor swift
I think Miley is trying so hard at being an adult she forgets that she's still a child. I don't care if she's 18 - in my opinion she's just a kid. Those are not appropriate clothes for a teenage role model. A question for those who think it's okay for her to wear slutty clothes when she performs to children aged between 5-16: If you were working in a bank, would you turn up there wearing nothing but a miniskirt and a corset? Of course you wouldn't. You would get sacked if you did. Do you see doctors wearing nothing but little else beside? You don't. It's not respectable to wear something like that when you're in the position to influence children. Of course responsibility comes with age and Miley is still young... I hope that she'll get back to her senses. The sooner the better. I don't mean that she doesn't look good in those clothes. She has a great body and she looks beautiful in those clothes. Anyone who disagrees is either blind or just stupid. Even so, that doesn't mean she should be wearing revealing clothes in publicity. Secondly, I don't understand why people keep arguing about the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus -problem. Yes, she started as Hannah Montana and now she's trying to get rid of that role. You have to realize that those who watched Hannah Montana are most likely the ones who buy Miley's cds and go to her concerts today. It's how the entertainment world works. Everybody remembers Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox from Friends and you don't see them complaining... In my opinion Miley has a responsibility to dress accordingly. You have to be realistic about who are her target audience. Unarguably they are teenagers below 18 -years and younger children. People at that age are very sensitive. Those of you who have read psychology already know that people learn by copying each other. We even have cells that specialize in copying (mirror cells). And what do the kids learn from Miley be it conscious or subconscious? My guess would be something among the lines of that in order to be successful you have to wear very revealing clothes and perform soft core porn. People who are blaming here the critics by saying that we're jealous aren't very experienced what comes to sophisticated argumentation. Being jealous to Miley is a totally different matter. I myself can say that I do envy Miley not only because of her good looks but also because of her talent and succes.
yeah, Miley played Hannah, that was a long time ago and just because some young girls can't differentiate between the two, I really don't see how that gives permission to critize her for growing up. People say that she shouldn't behave this way because she's a rolemodel but at the end of the day there are plenty of worse rolemodels out there and just because she played one character she's not allowed to grow up and make mistakes like the rest of us. People need to find somebody that is actually doing wrong and waste their energy on them instead.
1- how do u know miley doesnt sleep aroound? 2-it doesnt matter that quit being hannah little girls will continue to think of her as hannah and look up to her
She has a body to dieee forrrr though i think she can present it to the world in a different manner
lady gaga biggest role model to people and she wears bloody prostitute clothes and she was an ex stripper so atleast miley is not half that and people dont even insult that slut like seriously she is someone u call a slut not miley that wears clothes that singers wear worse

No. Miley Cyrus just needs to understand classier clothes. Wearing a prostitutes clothes implies that you sleep around a lot. And Beyonce was and is MUCH older and MUCH more beautiful and talented than Miley Cyrus and therefore she isn't a slut. Please and thank you dumb bitches.
I don't think this is elegant I think this is kind of slutty. If it were a a dress then sure. But then she would be a little more clothes on her.
u guys ever thought lilian might have been sarcastic? obviously she was.... a normal person cant call miley cyrus 'elegant'
haters need to shut up, and stop looking at her pictures aye
I couldn't agree with you more. It's not the clothes that makes the slut, it's the actions. She looks amazing in her outfits, I like this one especially, but I'm a sucker for ornate things hahah :3 and she IS growing up, she's allowed to change just like everyone else. D:<
miley is amazing, she dresses like this cause it looks good, she isnt hannah montana anymore, and she should be called a slut just because she was disney channel actor and now dresses like this. she is an adult now, and beyonce and many other singers dress like this when there peforming and in there videos, and there not called a slut, there called beautiful, so why should miley be called a slut and not them, miley cyrus is a beautiful talented girl, i love you miley, fuck all the haters, its true ALL you guys dont know what a slut is, its not how they dress, it when you sleep around alot, miley doesnt so stfu,
Honey, first of all, "elegancy" is not a word. The term you are seeking is "elegance. Your grammatical error alone indicates that you are not experienced with what most people define as elegance. Never mind the trash in the photograph above.
she looks yumiiii in dis pix....sexi miley XoXoXo
get tits out love
i think it looks a little see thru on the bottom which is kinda gross
dude...dnt b narrow-minded...im sure different pple hav different ideas of wat 'elegant' is...and i think it's rather strange that the whole world keeps criticizing the same teenage girl...cuzin incase u havnt noticed she doesnt lose a minute of sleep over anyone's comments..sooo....jus sayin
Y'know, she is pretty..... She's just not classy. :\
I think this outfit is cute! im sure any girl that could rock this,, sooo would! and if u say no,,, thats BUULLLSHH*****T. ;)
have u ever thought that's HER idea of elegancy? maybe she is talking about the design on the (whatever it is) . i think the boots and the design is great
Have you ever seen 'elegant' because usually, it includes pants or some form of them. Elegant is a full length gorgeous dress. Not a pair of panties and a tight shirt.
ur outfit is so elegant

Fellow BC players/GMs, please provide me with creative ideas on how cause trouble wreak havoc to an RT group to which I GM.
You are to hunt down a Rogue Trader crew using a damaged Dictator-class Cruiser (full of dangerous Starhawk Bombers) provided you have a Slaughter-class chaos cruiser at your disposal (you are working for Karrad Vall).
Vall has deals with a corrupted RT in which taking down this dictator would not only mean access to its hulk but also to being gifted with a brand new imperial free trader ship with registries and all (which would mean free access to planets in the Calixis Sector for your group).
Obviously, losing or heavily damaging your Slaughter Cruiser is a terrible idea and its original owner (Vall) would have your soul balls for it.
You have the rough location of where this ship may go within the Koronus Expanse and your sorcerers/demons are being able to reliably (but with some delay) follow the tracks of this ship in the warp to planets like Vaporius (heathen desertic and feudal planet) and Processional of the Damned (enormous, unnatural, nurgle-owned voidship graveyard).
You've also managed to drag a blasted worthless hulk of a system-ship to a path through which the RT may pass...
You can have 5-20 people passing as crew-members at the enemy ship. These people can have a mission and are able to receive/transmit messages whenever the ship specifically enters/leaves the warp through some very specific sorcery.

package management on fedora
I've been talking a bit with a_thing about this in #nuxified IRC channel. I find yum to be quite slow. Not only does it apparently update the package database every time it is ran (which even on slower broadband networks can annoyingly slow down the overall install process), but calculating dependancies takes a bit longer than I'd like.
So the first question would be are there any optimizations that can be done to speed it up and how to disable automatic updating of package database every time yum is run?
I've also tried smart, but it doesn't work at all for me. After asking me to add detected repositories (yes or no questions for each) it says..
pdating cache... ( 0%)
.. and just stands there forever. What's up with that?
Fedora overall seems like a nice distro, but compared to apt-get on Debian/Ubuntu-like distros, package management leaves quite a bit to desire... I wouldn't be asking questions like this for apt-get since it just works.
Doesn't FC also come with apt-get (apt4rpm?) ? it seems to come with BLAG, though I'm personally happy enough with YUM or compiling from source (my usual install methods).
I didn't check yet and I'm back on gNewSense again (dual boot), but I'll check.
I suppose I could maybe live with yum as well, if I at least manage to disable that constant updating of package list.
yes, Fedora does come with apt-get, but add-on repos have been abandoning that since about FC3 AFAIK.
Just run yum -C
and it won't update the cache all the time.
Thanks kode. I'll try it as soon as I boot back to Fedora.

Thousands gathered for a lengthy, yet powerful, evening in honor of the fall of the wall.
UPDATE: Twenty years after the fall of its infamous wall, Berlin hosted a nighttime celebration that exploited the full symbolic weight of that historic event. The two-hour gala used the opening of the Berlin Wall as a starting point to consider the collapse of communism, the unification of Europe and barriers to global peace that persist to this day.
The crowd of tens of thousands that endured cold and rain was rewarded with musical performances, a theatrical re-enactment of the fall of the Berlin Wall, a fireworks show, as well as speeches from Berlin Mayor Klaus Wowereit, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, French president Nicolas Sarkozy, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and a recorded greeting from Barack Obama.
The politicians' speeches followed a similar template, with each of the statesmen thanking the city of Berlin for showing courage and endurance in peacefully overcoming its division.
But, it was also clear that the representatives from the various countries were intent on placing their own accent on the common history. Clinton emphasized America's leading role in fortifying West Berlin and providing a bulwark for freedom. Medvedev stressed that the events from 20 years ago taught the need for a "multipolar" world order, rather than one dominated by superpowers. Brown suggested that the successful end of the Cold War should serve as a precedent for current efforts to combat climate change. Wowereit made a point of remembering those East Germans who never succeeded at finding a fulfilling life in unified Germany.
Merkel reminded the audience that her country would never forget that the date of Nov. 9 was not only of a day of triumph, but also of tragedy. It was on Nov. 9, 1938, that the Nazi regime staged its "Kristallnacht" pogrom against German Jews that signaled the coming horrors of the second World War and the Shoah.
Despite the poor weather, the crowd was generally in good cheer. Only a relatively small percentage of attendees could gather directly in front of the Brandenburg Gate, where the main stage had been set up, so most of the crowd spilled in the direction of the Reichstag parliament building or Potsdamer Platz, areas that are now in the center of Germany's bustling capital city, but 20 years earlier had been mired in disrepair up against the borders of the wall.
There was a smattering of international visitors in the audience. One group had traveled from Scotland to Berlin expressly for the anniversary. Another group from Poland loudly cheered on behalf of the Polish workers' movement Solidarity for the duration of the two-hour celebration.
But, though the crowd was predominantly German, there was little sense that this was a national event: Only a few German flags waved in the air. A group of attendees was watching the event from the rooftop of the nearby American embassy. Others tried to get a better vantage point by climbing the concrete columns that comprise the newly constructed Holocaust memorial that is situated between the Brandenburg Gate and Potsdamer Platz.
The collapse of the Wall was restaged by way of several hundred meters of giant dominoes that were set up on the route between the Reichstag and Potsdamer Platz. They were pushed down on one end by Lech Walesa, the former head of Solidarity and former president of Poland, and on the other by Mikhail Gorbachev, former leader of the Soviet Union. The final few segments directly in front of the Brandenburg Gate were pushed over after Nobel Peace Prize winner Mohammed Yunus encouraged the world to address global poverty.
Earlier in the day, Merkel, together with Walesa and Gorbachev, had crossed the bridge at Bornholmer Strasse, where the first breach in the Wall had been made 20 years earlier. Many Berliners in attendance were moved by that symbolic re-enactment of the first crossing from East to West Berlin. And even if some of the locals found the evening event a bit long-winded, most were held in awe by the beautiful bursts of fireworks that spread out over Berlin's cold sky at the conclusion of the night.
BERLIN, Germany, Nov. 8 — The official proceedings of Monday's day of remembrance for the fall of the Berlin Wall will begin when Angela Merkel, international dignitaries and heads of state in tow, comes to the bridge at Bornholmer Strasse. This quiet, far-off corner of Germany's capital offers little indication of having once been at the crossroads of history.
Only a small plaque, marred by graffiti, and a gray stretch of the city's eponymous wall together make quiet claim that this is where East and West Germany first met on the fateful night of Nov. 9, 1989. Tourists don't visit Bornholmer Strasse and the locals who use the bridge don't pay the place much mind, so no one much notices that the unlit plaque is impossible to read after dusk. It may not be an idyllic or ideal backdrop, but it will have to do for Monday's events.
Merkel no doubt found herself in a dilemma familiar to many Berliners who receive guests from other countries. Foreigners usually come to Berlin seeking reminders of the Western triumph in the Cold War. But they're confronted by a city that is so diffident toward its own Cold War history that it removed nearly the entirety of its infamous wall as soon as it could.
The weighty symbolic resonances of the events from 20 years ago — the end of communism, the victory of freedom over tyranny — don't quite carry over to Germany, where the fall of the wall is a reality with a mundane and difficult legacy that the country is still living with. The guests this week may be higher-profile than usual — they include Hillary Clinton, Nicolas Sarkozy, U2, Mikhail Gorbachev and Jay-Z — but the problem remains.
Indeed, many Germans feel that the pomp and circumstance of the anniversary celebration — from U2's rock concert in front of the Brandenburg Gate last Wednesday, to the symbolically restaged fall of the wall that will conclude Monday's events — have been for the sake of people living elsewhere.

Daily exercise, a healthy diet, and taking care of your body are all important elements of senior health. But don't forget to take care of your brain, too. .
What Studies Say About the Benefits of Video Games
Several recent studies have examined video games as a new way to challenge the brain, keep it young, and promote healthy aging.
Though often labeled bad for children's health because it takes time away from exercise and other physical activity, researchers have found that video games can actually be good for senior health. One study, presented at the Gerontological Society of America's Annual Scientific Meeting, found that seniors who played Nintendo Wii for an hour a week reported higher positive mood and fewer feelings of loneliness than seniors who watched television for the same amount of time. Another study, from the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine, concluded that one-third of participants who played an exercise game on the Wii reported a 50 percent or greater reduction in depressive symptoms.
Video games also promote healthy aging in several other ways:
- Improve spatial skills
- Increase attention span
- Make reflexes sharper
- Process information more quickly
Video Games to Play
A variety of games, with different speeds, skills, and rules are good for healthy aging, as they use different parts of the brain and body. One particular study found that the Nintendo Wii system offers a wide variety of games to benefit seniors.
There are sports games, like Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort, that require a good deal of spatial skills and some physical ability. For fitness video games, there's the Wii Fit, a fun way to get exercise and perfect for seniors who may just be getting off the couch — you can do yoga and other exercises to improve balance, all while standing in front of your TV.
EA Active is another fitness video game that can help seniors get physically active while stimulating their brains. Strategy games are good for brain stimulation — one North Carolina State University study had participants play Rise of Nations, a strategy-based computer game, and found that seniors who played it showed improved cognitive function and memory.
The skills that are enhanced through video games can help seniors with many daily activities that they may start to struggle with as they age, such as managing multiple tasks, doing simple planning, solving problems, and retaining memory.
Cognitive function often becomes impaired or begins to decline as we age, and researchers think it's because the connections between your brain cells are changing. But keeping your mind engaged, stimulated, and active can help improve brain health. One way to do that, researchers say, is with video games.
Mental Activities for Healthy Aging
If video games aren't your cup of tea, experts also recommend these activities to promote a sharp, engaged brain:
- Testing your memory with games and exercises
- Doing daily crossword, Sudoku, or similar puzzles
- Going to the theater and listening to lectures
- Taking a class just for fun at a local community college to learn something new
- Reading and writing
- Challenging your spouse, friend, neighbor, or grandchild to take you on in various board games

Vance only Democrat for Alabama chief justice
Jefferson County Circuit Judge Robert Vance Jr. is the only Democrat to sign up to run for chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court.
The Democratic Party's deadline to sign up was noon Wednesday.
The Democratic Party began seeking a new candidate after a party committee disqualified the original Democratic nominee, Pelham attorney Harry Lyon, on Friday. Lyon said Wednesday that he plans to vote for Republican nominee Roy Moore as a matter of principle.
A write-in candidate for chief justice, Mobile attorney Melinda Lee Maddox, said Wednesday that she's dropping her campaign and supporting Vance. Another Mobile attorney who had started and then dropped a write-in candidacy, Ginger Poynter, said she will also support Vance.
